Hen Activities: Mersey Games

We’re thinking that this maybe one for the tomboy kind of hen party, than the glamour puss gaggle. The Mersey Games are probably going to break a nail, lose you some lashes and flatten your barnet but we guarantee you’ll have had some crazy fun.

Get your sports bras on for the horsey hoppers, the bungee pub run, shoe tossing (a bit like welly wanging but lighter), blindfolded bowling, the Scouser Duel gladiator style, a sumo wrestle (just the suits will have you crying with laughter), a three-legged race or maybe four or five, a tug-o-war across the Mersey and a Mersey shower; that last one is cruel, very cruel.

Buffed guy guides will lead you through the activities and endeavor to score, no, we mean keep score! Oh and they’ll take photos of you looking ridiculous, it’s too good to miss. Talking of which, fancy dress is optional and can be provided for your chief hen and we say it’s not fair if you don’t join her with your own get-up.

If a day at the spa is more your thing, then this fantastically active activity isn’t, but you can do the spa any day and remember, think of the photos!
